Reports have actually been swirling around about Porsche exploring the possibility of building a model that will equal the hugely successful Tesla Model S. The Stuttgart automaker has actually remained quite mum on the subject, however then it has actually constantly chosen to keep things a trick as long as it can.

The source of this details is kept under covers, so it is tough to identify what info is really from the source and exactly what information Car pulled from thin air. Giving Porsche’s love of secrecy, I am favoring the majority of Car’s details being pure speculation. That said, I put in the time to sort through all of it and take out what I thought was on the mark, and include some speculation of my own on the 717.

The report is that the 2019 porsche 717 will be a four-door sedan based on the VW Group’s MSB architecture, with cues drawn from the 911, making it look practically like a smaller sized version of the Panamera.

The drivetrain is what truly matters in the 2019 porsche 717, as battling the Tesla Model S will require a delicate balance of efficiency and efficiency. Unlike the model S, which features a flat battery that also doubles as the floorboards, Car Magazine claims that the 717’s style will require a topologic (mountain-like), 108-cell battery with some parts of the battery extended up into the sills and footwell areas. Apparently powering the 2019 porsche 717 is a four-motor system (one on each wheel) that will be available in three various power levels: 400 horse power, 500 horsepower, and 600 horse power. With a motor at each wheel, the 717 will certainly be all-wheel drive, and it will also consist of torque vectoring and four-wheel steering.
